# SHOW CLIENT\_STATISTICS

## Syntax

```sql
SHOW CLIENT_STATISTICS
```

## Description

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Current" %}
The `SHOW CLIENT_STATISTICS` statement has effectively been replaced by the generic [SHOW TABLE STATISTICS](/docs/server/reference/sql-statements/administrative-sql-statements/show/show-table-statistics.md) statement. The [information\_schema.CLIENT\_STATISTICS](/docs/server/reference/system-tables/information-schema/information-schema-tables/information-schema-client_statistics-table.md) table holds statistics about client connections.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="< 10.1.1" %}
The `SHOW CLIENT_STATISTICS` statement is part of the [User Statistics](/docs/server/ha-and-performance/optimization-and-tuning/query-optimizations/statistics-for-optimizing-queries/user-statistics.md) feature. The [information\_schema.CLIENT\_STATISTICS](/docs/server/reference/system-tables/information-schema/information-schema-tables/information-schema-client_statistics-table.md) table holds statistics about client connections.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

The [userstat](/docs/server/server-management/variables-and-modes/server-system-variables.md#userstat) system variable must be set to 1 to activate this feature. See the [User Statistics](/docs/server/ha-and-performance/optimization-and-tuning/query-optimizations/statistics-for-optimizing-queries/user-statistics.md) and [information\_schema.CLIENT\_STATISTICS](/docs/server/reference/system-tables/information-schema/information-schema-tables/information-schema-client_statistics-table.md) articles for more information.
